IUI

Infertility is an emotional battle that several couples go through. Are you facing fertility challenges? Are you losing hope on your parenthood dreams? Couples, don’t lose hope yet! You are not alone, and this journey is not over yet!

IUI is a ray of hope for several couples searching for a fertility solution. This is one of the most affordable and minimally invasive fertility treatments available.

However, before you move forward with the best IUI treatment in Bangalore, there are several questions you must have answers to, such as:

  • What is the IUI treatment cost in Bangalore?
  • What is IUI Treatment and Procedure?
  • What is the IUI success rate?
  • Is IUI Painful?

Here, we will give you answers to all your questions regarding IUI.

What is IUI?

The IUI Procedure is a fertility treatment that places processed (washed) sperm into the female partner’s uterus during the ovulation period. This helps to increase the chances of fertilization.

The IUI treatment is usually paired with medications to stimulate ovulation.

What is IUI Treatment and the Procedure?

Here is what your IUI procedure is going to look like:

Watching for ovulation

Your ovulation is the key period for your IUI. During this time, you will be monitored with the help of ultrasounds and hormone tests.

Semen sample preparation

The male partner will be needed to provide a semen sample on the same day. Now, it will be processed (washed) to remove any prostaglandins and non-motile sperm.

This procedure takes 30-40 minutes in case of fresh samples. However, the frozen samples are thawed and washed on the IUI procedure day.

Insemination

Now, the washed sperm is placed into the female partner’s uterus with the help of a thin, flexible catheter.

It is a painless process and is going to take only a couple of minutes. You can continue with your regular activities after the procedure and do not need to take bed rest.

What is the cost of IUI?

Your IUI treatment cost in Bangalore can vary based on several factors, such as:

  • Age
  • Ovulation stimulation medication
  • Pre-testing for IUI
  • Number of cycles
  • Follicle monitoring
  • Hospital
  • Doctor’s expertise
  • Location

The cost of IUI treatment in India typically ranges between INR 10,000 to 50,000. The IUI procedure is about 1/10 th the cost of IVF, therefore, it is quite preferred by couples.

Why is IUI Performed?

The IUI procedure is recommended for couples who are going through several fertility-related problems, such as:

Donor sperm

In case you and your partner have decided to choose donor sperm due to a genetic disorder or any other reason.

Cervical factor

A thick cervical mucus prevents the sperm from reaching the egg. The IUI bypasses the cervix to help the sperm reach the uterus.

Unexplained infertility

Sometimes, a clear reason for infertility is not found. During such times, IUI treatment and procedure are often the first line of treatment for couples.

Mild male factor infertility

When the sperm count or motility is slightly lower than the normal range, IUI can be quite helpful. It helps to increase the number of healthy sperm reaching the egg.

Ovulatory factor infertility

If you are someone who does not ovulate regularly, you can also benefit from IUI. IUI, along with ovulation-inducing medication, can be beneficial for you.

Semen allergy

Don’t be shocked! This is a possibility. It is quite rare, but a few women have allergic reactions to the proteins present in the semen. Washing the semen will eliminate these proteins, facilitating pregnancy without the symptoms of allergy.

What is the success rate of IUI?

Your age plays a significant role in your success rate in IUI. The conception rate takes a huge dip due to a decline in egg quality post your 30s.

IUI success rate based on the age of the female:

Age Group Approximate IUI Success Rate
Before 30 20-25%
30-35 15-20%
35-40 10%
Early 40 5%
